There are infinite possibilities, and not a single one where they don’t destroy each other.
Cynical wizards playing a desperate game of real politik do not emerge from a vacuum; nor do middle-aged environmental activists who come to see a government paycheque as a way to the greater good.
In Rachel A. Rosen’s moving (and yes, somewhat explicit) tale, So Human As I Am, we are introduced to Ian Mallory and Jonah Augustine before either one of them came into his name.
